Blood Limit is a mechanic related to the Maidens' Blood Meters.
Blood Limit determines how much Blood Splatter is needed to max out a Maiden's Blood Meter. A lower Blood Limit requires less Blood Splatter to max out, while a higher Blood Limit requires more. While this is mostly negligible and isn't noticed by most players, taking advantage of low Blood Limits can be very useful, leading to frequent use of Massacre Mode and Lick skills.
Every Job has designated Blood Limit value, ranging anywhere from 50 to 250 depending on the Job. Each Job's Blood Limit is static and doesn't change, with a few exceptions. The Pierrot and R-Clown Set F Jobs cycle between set Blood Limit values. In the PC and Vita version of Mary Skelter: Nightmares, Blood Limit functions the same way but each Job's Blood Limit starts at a small value in increases with the Maiden's level. Although the increase is displayed as a positive increase in a stat, it is actually has a negative impact since more Blood Splatter is required to fill the Blood Meter as the Maiden's level increases.
Blood Limits[]
Mary Skelter: Nightmares[]
In the PC and Vita versions of Mary Skelter: Nightmares, Blood Limit has a few quirks that are not present in the other games. The first quirk is that Blood Limit is not a static value, instead it starts at a small value and increases with each level. The increase per level follows a consistent pattern. The second quirk is that there is a much smaller variety of Blood Limit values here compared to later entries. The first four classes of each class set have the same Blood Limit value of 255 at level 99 (and increase at the same rate). The Blood type Jobs (including the Sakura Maiden DLC Job), the fifth Job of each class set, have a Blood Limit value of 217 at level 99, except for the Blood Chemist Job, which has a value of 166 at level 99.
